HI, thanks for using healthcare magic

You may want to consider the use of oral antihistamines to help reduce the itchy sensation.
Eg benadryl, claritine, allegra. One of these can be used, they are over the counter medications.

The alternative would be a topical antihistamine drop to the eye. These may not be available over the counter. A prescription from your doctor may be needed.

I hope this helps
